While cruising magazines, pinterest, blogs and online shopping for the dining room, the one design element I am just not sure on is the seating. I have two styles of chairs right now that I pretty much love but it’s form vs function between my man and my choices for seating. He is practical, […]

Making over the Dining Room
Hey friends, how is the beginning of summer treating you? It’s been really going great here so far, usually the first few weeks are an “adjustment period” because the mom and kids are trying to get used to sharing and being around each other all the time. Now that we know we are staying […]
Kids Bedroom Laminate Flooring
This dog, whom I love very much, hates peeing outside when it’s raining or snowing. That’s kind of a problem when you live in Minnesota. So because of that cute little schnauzer face, two weeks ago I was busy ripping out some dog pee stained carpeting in one of the bedrooms upstairs. I really love […]
Bloom where you are planted
For many of you who we see often, you know the debate of moving South or not has been ongoing in our home for about a year, well ok, maybe a little longer than that. The past two winters have been really rough on me personally. The bone chilling cold combined with the wind plus the cloudy days, make […]
Living Room Dilemmas
Hey friends, so if you follow me on instagram or my facebook page, you know last week I may have painted my front living room. I went wild and crazy, choosing a color without sampling it first and as you know, that’s probably a bad idea. I’m just going to be blunt and blame it […]
Updating the Hallway
It’s been a slow process but we are almost done with the hallway, stairway and entryway trim project. Back on Superbowl weekend (the very beginning of February) we decided to add picture frame moulding to the entryway and stairway. At the last minute we added on the upstairs hallway to our plans. Let me take […]
Marble Countertop Choices
Hello friends! It has been a while since I have blogged, we were busy traveling around the country for Spring Break. We headed back to South Carolina and Tennessee, our favorite places to visit! The weather was wonderful and so was the southern hospitality! It’s gloomy and rainy here today so all these pictures […]
Living Room & Kitchen Updates
Spring is coming and I’ve been fluffing my nest. After painting a few rooms in my home the next change for me was some furniture. I have rearranged this living room more than a few times lately and now I think I’ve finally figured out how I like it. A few weeks ago at Target […]
Mint Chocolate Cake (Creme de menthe Cake)
This recipe has been floating around for years and years, in fact every year for my birthday this would be the cake I would ask for. And I’m oldish, so I really mean years and years. It’s simple and so good, although you should make it in the morning or even the night before you […]
Surprise Master Bedroom Client Makeover
The other week I was contacted by a husband to surprise his wife with a little master bedroom and bath makeover. What a wonderful idea and I was so happy to help. Hopefully they both love what I did in there because I spent every last penny I was given! The room didn’t need a […]
